Biography
Pre-Crisis
Travis Morgan
U.S. Air Force pilot Travis Morgan had lost his place in the world; his wife Rachel was killed in an automobile accident and he sent his daughter to live with her aunt Marie. Morgan served in the Vietnam War, and after returning home, he was sent by the Pentagon on a secret mission to photograph a new Soviet installation. He was discovered and fired upon. Although his plane was not destroyed, it was badly damaged, and he was eventually forced to parachute out over Alaska. He somehow descended through an inter-dimensional nexus between Earth’s Arctic and the otherdimensional realm of Skartaris. Upon arriving he rescued a princess Tara from a carnivorous dinosaur. He also aided her escape from the diabolical high priest Deimos. Tara taught Morgan her language and tutored him in swordsmanship. (First Issue Special v1 #8)

Alternate Versions
- In Flashpoint: Deathstroke and the Curse of the Ravager v1 #1 (2011), an alternate version of the Warlord appeared in the altered timeline of the Flashpoint. The Warlord is the pirate of a fleet when he was attacked by pirate Deathstroke in battle stealing their loot. During the battle, The Warlord's crew was killed while he escaped using the hovercraft. Later, The Warlord plans to attack Deathstroke and retrieve Jenny Blitz who has been in stasis since she was stolen from him. The Warlord ambushed Deathstroke and his fleet and demanded that they surrender. In answer Deathstroke shot The Warlord's right eye using a scoped sniper rifle. He had been aiming for his mouth. Deathstroke fired at The Warlord's ship again, and it unexpectedly blew up. Each ship in Warlord's fleet subsequently exploded. The ships were destroyed by Jenny Blitz, now released from her stasis tube due to an earlier skirmish between Ocean Master and Icicle, one of Deathstroke's crewmen. Jenny appears to be able to project explosive force from her hands.
